Express Container Management Employee Reviews for Lumper

The job can be good depending on what you’re unloading, most of the times you can get a 40ft container full of small boxes , and they will pay you $120 for 8 hours. Not enough after the government takes its cut. But then again , you can get a good container and be done between 30-1hr and make $120.

So you guys understand like every job there are a large variety of different techniques you can learn do help you do your job super fast , you need to be willing to learn or it will look hard. If you want to learn more techniques you just ask the company to teach you and they will be more then happy to help you with that but you have to speak up !Most of guys I have seen work alone doing 2 containers a day the more experienced guys do 2 or 4 alone making 200 to 400 daily .as far as partners are concerned just learn as many techniques as you can and I promise you as a team you can do 4 Containers in 6 to 8 hours! Making 200 a day as a team The key to be successful in this trade like any other trade is to speak up and ask to learn new ways to do your job faster and promise you will 48 to 55 thousand a year and it can only increase from there
